3G Mobile Broadband Data Usage

[Rev130]

Hi all I have a  Pre Paid Telstra Elite Mobile Broadband WiFi Dongle for use with my laptop / tablet / phone etc How do I find out how much data I have used and what’s remaining before I have to recharge. As lately it works and then eventually won’t give me internet access which obliviously means I have to re-charge but I would likely to track my usage can anyone tell me how I can do that?

Cheers

There are many way to manage your Telstra pre-paid services.

Best bet is to have a look at http://www.telstra.com.au/mobile-phones/prepaid-mobiles/my-account/

doesn't work - what number do I put in ??? my home number is obviously not correct. I put in what appears to be the number on the box of the dongle - no luck.
the only good thing about the poor optus coverage was the easy and obvious click to check usage. no complicated processes !!

Hi how did you go? I was thinking that surely there must be something that is displayed on the desktop. Can u help me?

It would be a Windows widget if displayed on the desktop. We don't have a widget at this stage. You can log into my account on a web browser and this gives up to date usage.
